Richard Estes – New York Artist who dealt with Photo realism. Click on the painting for his BIO!

GOALS:

  1. 1.2 create art that demonstrates how you understand the ideas of 2 point perspective and creating windows and doors.

GOALS:

  1. 2.3 RESOLVE artworks that solve visual challenges
  2. 5.1 identify the rationale behind making art (NON-Objective from direct observation)

Is there a CONSCIOUS thought as to the positive / negative space in this work? Are you thinking about how the values are working together? Is it still challenging for you to see non-objective inside the real observable objects? Do you UNDERSTAND how you can develop STRONG ideas that are outside of the comfort zone, outside of your art making toolbox? Are you going to be ready for the critique tomorrow?

~~~ AP Studio Art: Critique!

How do we critique an artwork? Let’s look at the worksheets from last time AND the link from the image Above…

GOALS:

WHAT IS THE CENTRAL IDEA FOR YOUR CONCENTRATION?

  1. (3.3) describe the creation of images and ideas and explain why they are of value (Orally participate in the discussion of your classmates drawing.)
  2. (4.3) compare relationships in visual art in terms of (4.3.2) aesthetics

What did you take away from the critique today? Write down what you have taken from the crit.
